Default help bracket setup for hids level sensor

my 01 TT roadster with factory hids has a bracket on drivers side rear trailing arm, i removed it to install shocks + springs could someone look under their similar car and tell me if i installed it correctly, the bracket rotates after removal, i have the U bolt on the left looking from the rear of car the arm attached to that bracket can go to the top or bottom of the bracket, where is your arm on that bracket on the trailing arm located, i can't find a good pic in the service manual showing it. thanks in advance

The small ball joint goes at the bottom. If you are using round adjustable arms, be careful to get the bracket clamped on in an orientation that will not overextend the plastic lever on the control when the car is jacked up. It will break.
